Living stems pretreatment unit and living stems pretreatment process
Technical field
The present invention relates to detection technique, particularly relate to the pretreatment process of a kind of living stems pretreatment unit and living stems.
Background technology
At present, in food safety, ambient water quality detection and prevention and control of diseases work, the detection technique of microorganism mainly contains conventional sense technology and molecular Biological Detection technology.Conventional sense technology is bacteria distribution cultural method mainly, and the positive rate of the method culturing bacterium is low, incubation time long (being generally 2-10 days), cannot meet current, high-throughput, responsive demand quick to microorganism detection, and molecular Biological Detection technology, as PCR and Real time round pcr mainly detects the DNA profiling of microorganism in sample, have fast, accurately, the advantage of sxemiquantitative or detection by quantitative, but what the method detected is copy for the DNA of microorganisms all in whole sample, comprise the DNA of the dead microbial release with bioactive DNA of bacteria and abiology and health significance, the result of detection and the actual deviation with the bacteria content of biologic activity can be caused like this, there is " false positive " result, have influence on and detect and assessment food, the accuracy of the bacteria content of biological sample in environmental sample and prevention and control of diseases.
At present, the dead DNA of bacteria in testing sample and DNA of bacteria of living cannot be distinguished for PCR and Real time PCR detection technique, before microorganism detection, first pre-treatment or pre-treatment are implemented to testing sample, the dead bacterium DNA in sample is degraded, to improve detection accuracy.That is, some have been had to report for the preprocessing process before PCR and Real time PCR detection.Such as: the open CN102605091A of patent, the denomination of invention EMA-PCR detection method of pathogenic bacteria viable bacteria " in plant's environment ", this detection method make use of and adds EMA reagent at testing sample, carry out pre-treatment under halogen light source illumination after, extract template DNA, carry out PCR detection with template DNA; The open CN102146480A of patent, denomination of invention " the living stems method of legionella and detection kit ", this detection method also utilizes EMA equally and to degrade in measuring samples DNA in dead mycetocyte, then extracts measuring samples DNA, by the viable count of legionella in fluorescence quantitative PCR detection sample.
Can see, comprise that above-mentioned what be disclosed in that interior prior art pays close attention to is all the operation of the preprocessing process of testing sample, and not open relevant pretreatment unit carries out specification pre-treatment accurately to testing sample.That is, the preprocessing process of prior art is all degraded first for testing sample by the DNA of EMA reagent to dead bacterium under the irradiation of light source, detects the DNA of the bacterium that lives after being separated.In operation, except selecting suitable treatment agent, under also needing that sample is placed in light source with means by rights, just can complete and reach expected result, the result that technician can only grope according to great many of experiments and accumulate, by experience, associated technical parameters and mode are set, be difficult to the Stability and veracity ensureing detected result.On the other hand, prior art needs to use incandescence-halogen lamp, and the power of this kind of light source is large, a large amount of heats can be produced, also the DNA of bacterium alive in testing sample can be caused to be degraded, to make subsequent detection be worth improper reduction, accurately can not reflect the legitimate reading of sample.Therefore, in DNA process in the dead bacterium of illumination degrading, usually need to use ice bath to carry out under cryogenic to control its degradation process, but this control device to low temperature can not control temperature accurately, and because of the error of operator, can melt completely under making ice bath be exposed to the irradiation of halogen lamp for a long time, thus the temperature of environment residing for testing sample is raised, cause sample fails, have a strong impact on the safety of testing sample.
Therefore, how to design a kind of pretreatment unit, can by technical parameters such as regulation and control light and temperature, realize standardization and the accuracy of the detected result of pretreatment process, be people's problem demanding prompt solutions always.
